A Tribute to Curtis Mayfield [Warner Bros.]

A Tribute to Curtis Mayfield [Warner Bros.] (1994) more music like this

by Various Artists

A fabulous assortment of artists from different areas of the rock genre give a glorifying tribute to Curtis Mayfield in a sparkling 17-song package. Stevie Winwood does a partying rendition of "It's All Right"; a version of "Let's Do It Again" is performed by Mayfield and the Repercussions that mimics the Staple Singers' original; Mayfield does ...

The Anthology 1961-1977 (1992) more music like this

by Curtis Mayfield/The Impressions

MCA's double-disc The Anthology 1961-1977 is the definitive overview of Curtis Mayfield's career, as the only compilation to draw from both his solo work and the best of his output with the Impressions. In fact, even discounting the four Curtom tracks that spill over onto disc two, the first disc's 26 selections constitute far and away the most ...

by Various Artists

Rhino's four-disc collection The Doo Wop Box may not contain every classic doo wop single ever recorded, but it comes damn close. Featuring 100 tracks, superb sound, and amazingly detailed liner notes, the set is one of the best various-artist box sets ever assembled; although these four discs will be all the doo wop some listeners will ever need, ...

Sing America

Sing America (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Sing America is a benefit album for Save America's Treasures, an institution that intends to preserve "our nation's glorious heritage -- our monuments, parks, archives and landmarks...from sea to shining sea." Since it's such a good cause, it's hard to criticize an album as weirdly incoherent as this. Any record that opens with Leonard Bernstein's ...

The ABC Rarities

The ABC Rarities (1999) more music like this

by The Impressions

Twenty-six song compilation of non-LP singles, rarities that only showed up on obscure reissues and various-artists collections, and material (both released and unreleased) from their sessions for their late-'60s The Versatile Impressions album. As a listen it's a little uneven, due in large part to the over-preponderance of standards from ...

Ultimate Collection

Ultimate Collection (2001) more music like this

by The Impressions

This is an Ultimate Collection for the Impressions, not Curtis Mayfield, which are two separate things, no matter how closely intertwined their histories are. This begins with "For Your Precious Love," when Jerry Butler was the lead singer, and ends with two tracks that he neither wrote nor sang, giving a good basic history of the band's career ...

Keep on Pushing/People Get Ready

Keep on Pushing/People Get Ready (1996) more music like this

by The Impressions

Two good Impressions albums from the mid-'60s, combined onto one CD, making them handier to collect in this fashion than hunting down good-quality copies of the rare original vinyl editions. As usual, the singles ("Keep on Pushing," "People Get Ready," "Amen," "I've Been Trying," "Woman's Got Soul," "You Must Believe Me") overshadow the LP-only ...

Best of Jerry Butler & The Impressions [Curb 2005]

Best of Jerry Butler & The Impressions [Curb 2005] (2005) more music like this

by Jerry Butler & The Impressions

Before the Impressions were Curtis Mayfield's group, they were Jerry Butler's, and while both incarnations were superb, it was Mayfield's visionary songwriting that truly earned the Impressions their current reputation. This rather lackluster set (everything included here is a re-recording and not the original version) combines the two versions of ...

People Get Ready (1965) more music like this

by The Impressions

As with the previous year's Keep on Pushing, People Get Ready featured another big Curtis Mayfield hit, one that made as strong an impact on the civil-rights movement as on the charts. One of the most beautiful songs of the '60s, "People Get Ready" set the oft-used "gospel train" as its theme, with Mayfield speaking of faith for the present and ...

It's All Right (1995) more music like this

by The Impressions

A stunning but brief compilation of Impressions tracks that includes favorites like "It's All Right," plus two motivators in "Amen" and "Keep On Pushing." The mysterious "Gypsy Woman" is the best of the Impressions as a quintet, while the bouncy "I Love You (Yeah)" and the sincere "See the Real Me" are two examples of the close harmonies of the ...

An instantly recognizable bargain bin staple since the late '70s, thanks to their colorful comic book covers tracing the romantic life of an Everycouple named Peg and Eddie, the Cruisin' series of discs are built on a brilliant concept: each disc is devoted to a single year, with hit songs, local commercials, station jingles, and news headlines ...

Best Soul Album in the World (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

It's hard to agree with a title like The Best Soul Album in the World...Ever -- too much hyperbole for most tastes -- but it's hard to disagree with the music. The compilers have decided to focus on smooth and funky '70s soul instead of the gritty, deep soul of the '60s. When they dip back into the '60s, it's for the uptown groove of the ...

Other members are Curtis Mayfield, Arthur Brooks, Richard Brooks, Sam Gooden and newly acquired Fred Cash, brought in to replace Butler. Jerry sings "Precious Love" as if he's reciting a prayer, his rich, mature baritone defying his youthfulness. ...

A wise buy for those curious about the kings of Chicago soul, The Very Best of the Impressions is a tad brief, but it hits on all cylinders for most of its running time. Beginning with the early hits "Gypsy Woman" and "It's All Right," this chronological 16-track collection compiles the best from the Impressions' growing social consciousness ( ...
